i've tried to be cool w/ musicals cos of the line that they are a deeply bizarre urban american mongrel conflicted artform etc, but, i'm basically right there with you. i can take bob fosse kind of but that's about it.

wasn't v funny imo. also doesn't hold a candle to adventureland.

superbad is really bad. calculated quirkyness almost as offensive as juno's, and otherwise a standard fare american pie copy

superbad is not great but something about the way rogen says "are you familiar with yoda?" kills me every time

thought it was like american pie except not funny and I hated the characters and was basically rooting against them getting laid. maybe I should watch it again.

need to rewtch that. was kind of underwhelmed at the time compared to knocked up, which is i suppose more dramatic, but i remember more lols from it.

Superbad is the total opposite of Juno imo. The penis drawing scenes are amazing surreal insanity.

remember nothing about this movie except joyriding cops and drawing penises in notebooks (which is always funny)

superbad and adventureland are both peerless masterpieces fuiud

jonah hill's "you have my information" to cera when they part at the end is my favourite line i think

ten years from now i think i'm going to take "observe and report" over all of these movies because it depicts these men as the borderline psychotics they'd appear in real life

also the tiananmen sq. penis

ps i liked youth in revolt

not to say the apatow camp hasn't given me lolz over the last decade. superbad gets away with it more than most because they're actually underage.

Paul Blart was a better film than Observe and Report

not enough sb's in the world right now

superbad = ok teen film, would have loved it if i was in high school. only parts i really liked were the cops w/mclovin.

i kinda wanted a whole movie of just the cops minus mclovin

so what's the average wait time between posts? trying to decide when to go to sleep

lil surprised knocked up is gonna be above superbad

by the way, super troopers is better than all these apatow movies :|

McLovin is really one of my favorite supporting performances of the decade.

superbad morelike superlolz

Super Troopers is a great flick. I'm kinda curious what a top 40 comedies of the decade poll would look like.

i hope bill hader never gets a starring role because it would dilute his magic

<3 superbad, best of the apatows hands down

loved this movie but it's not gonna feel right if John C Reilly's comedic chops aren't properly recognized. so is there still room for Step Bros or what?

no

step bros is all-time but not coz of JCR

Talladega Nights>>>>>>Step Brothers

otm

no

o god can we not do this

I thought "Role Models" was pretty much the best of the 00s Hollywood "bro" comedies, maybe because besides the funny adolescent jokes it was also about the menchildren growing up. But I can't see it making this far in the poll, sadly.

they're ALL about menchildren growing up

*ponders having abortion*

cops killed the movie

<3 superbad, best of the apatows hands down

otm

Role Models you can't see making it this far in the poll, but Moulin Rouge you thought was gonna place????

SEX RUINS EVERYTHING

I dunno, maybe. But I liked the growing-up story in Role Models the best. It was nice that in the end it didn't even make LARPers look bad

(x-post to Strongo)

i liked role models only because stifler in a minotaur costume is inherently funny

i wouldn't be surprised if Moulin Rouge was higher on my ballot than anyone else who voted, but after it didn't show up in the first couple days of results i knew it was probably a lost cause.

Superbad is one of the weakest of the Apatows imo, don't really see the bfd about it.

I have never seen role models but that descript made me lol xp

superbad and adventureland are both peerless masterpieces fuiud

seriously, fuiud

super troopers is also all time

Role Models you can't see making it this far in the poll, but Moulin Rouge you thought was gonna place????

Like I said, everyone I know loved Moulin Rouge, but few of my friends have even seen Role Models. I joined ILX way after Moulin Rouge came out, and I can't remember any big discussions about it here, so I guess I just assumed ILXors like it too, knowing that many people here prefer sincere, unpretentious movies over postmodern pastiches.
